- Fiber Types
- There are two types of fiber: soluble and insoluble.
- What type of fiber you should eat depends on what’s going on with you.
- “Soluble fiber helps diarrhea by absorbing water and adding bulk to stools. Insoluble fiber, which is not digestible, may help with constipation but make diarrhea worse," says dietitian Hilary Shaw.
- Which is which? In fruits, vegetables, and whole grains, generally the outside, or skin, is insoluble. This is known as roughage. The soft inside is soluble.

- Berries
